In some examples, a computing device includes at least one processor; and at least one module, operable by the at least one processor to: output, for display at an output device, a graphical keyboard; receive an indication of a gesture detected at a location of a presence-sensitive input device, wherein the location of the presence-sensitive input device corresponds to a location of the output device that outputs the graphical keyboard; determine, based on at least one spatial feature of the gesture that is processed by the computing device using a neural network, at least one character string, wherein the at least one spatial feature indicates at least one physical property of the gesture; and output, for display at the output device, based at least in part on the processing of the at least one spatial feature of the gesture using the neural network, the at least one character string.

The disclosed computer-implemented method may include (1) monitoring, at a computing device via one or more sensors, positions of one or more fingers of a user relative to an opposing thumb of the user, (2) detecting, while monitoring the positions, a pinch gesture of the one or more fingers, (3) determining one or more user inputs to which at least the pinch gesture has been mapped, and (4) performing, at the computing device, a user-input operation based on the one or more user inputs. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

A keyboard includes a communication module configured to communicatively couple the keyboard to a host computer. The keyboard includes a plurality of keys that are configured to be physically actuated by a user. The plurality of keys can be remapped such that a signal transmitted to the host for a specific key can be changed to a different signal corresponding to a different key. The keyboard can also include an administrative mode that can be accessed in response to the user depressing a series of predetermined keys. While in the administrative mode the user can reconfigure keyboard settings, access debug functions of the keyboard and/or reset memory locations.

An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a light source section, a detector, and a determination section. The light source section irradiates light onto a body site of a user. The detector includes a plurality of light detectors and outputs a plurality of detection signals on the basis of reflected light that is reflected off the body site. The determination section determines a movement of the user on the basis of information regarding a speckle generated due to the light being irradiated onto the body site, the information regarding a speckle being included in the plurality of detection signals.

A character input device includes an operation unit that receives a character input performed with a flick input, a slide detector that detects a starting position of the flick input, and a determination unit that adjusts an input determination area for the character input in response to the starting position in accordance with an input error count for the flick input.

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a display, and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to execute the application, display a first screen, display a second screen in response to a user input for selecting an input field or a text input button included in the first screen, display a keyboard layout and a user interface (UI) including at least one input button associated with the keyboard layout within the second screen when a specified condition is met, and display the keyboard layout and an input button for calling the UI within the second screen when the specified condition is not met.

The present invention relates to systems and methods for providing customized keyboards for receiving user inputs, and view regions for displaying information for users in useful arrangements. Such keyboards include keys that are pre-programmed to reflect the issues present in each trading pane of the view regions. Using such keys, a user may direct the trading application to quickly and efficiently switch between multiple issues, and place, manipulate or cancel orders on them. The keyboard may also be designed such that multiple keys may be disabled, replaced or mapped to perform different functions.

The present invention discloses an EOG-based method and apparatus for asynchronous character input, said method comprising the following steps: displaying a virtual keyboard having a total of N keys on a display, the virtual keyboard flickering in rounds, wherein in each round, all N keys randomly flicker once; when spelling, a user blinks after the flickering of a target key, so as to acquire electro-oculogram signals of the user in real-time; capturing electro-oculogram data within a time period following the flickering of a key from the acquired electro-oculogram signals, and using said electro-oculogram data as an original feature vector of the flickering key; N original feature vectors being generated in each cycle, an electro-oculogram identification method is called to identify the N original feature vectors, and outputting a certain result from 0 to N, wherein 0 indicates that a condition for character input is not met, and 1 to N correspond to the N keys on the virtual keyboard. The present invention ensures that blinking by a user may be detected normally, while at the same time effectively eliminating misjudgments of non-blinking signals, thus increasing the accuracy rate of character input.

A method for inputting and outputting a text comprising characters is disclosed, wherein the text is input via an input unit and/or output via an output unit in the form of a combination of full text and short text. The short text is input and/or output including at least one abbreviation in the form of characters or combinations of characters, to which predefined full text contents are allocated.

One is to compose stratified keyboard for commands and symbols. Another is to compose corresponding system between screen displayed virtual keyboard and actual keyboard. For instance, one virtual key on the screen is endowed with certain function and when we touch one key on the actual keyboard whose position is corresponding to that one on the displayed screen, the function belonging to displayed one is executed. All operations are executed through touching keyboard and thus manipulations get stereo typed and speedy. Furthermore, stratified stereo typed keyboard system for command, symbols, figures and characters propose us the chance to deliberate systematic formation for them.
